Customer Reviews ASICS GEL-Nimbus 26

Good fitting for wide or aged feet. Good cushioning.

These are super comfortable. I bought Nikes consistently and couldnt find a pair that didnt hurt my feet. Enter ASICS. Couldnt be happier.

Very comfortable shoe The most comfortable shoe Ive owned

By fair the most comfortable shoe Ive worn. I am walking 9.3 miles a day , on my feet around 12hrs. a day on concrete and my feet , knees and back feel great after a long day.

Very Happy with this nimbus update. I owned a few pairs of Nimbus 25 as daily trainers for easy runs, but always wanted an all black pair I could get away with wearing casually. ASICS finally released an all black version in the 26 so I had to have them. Wonderful shoe for being on your feet all day. I ran in them as well and they are quite similar to the 25, perhaps a touch more responsive. Highly recommend if you want a very comfortable max cushion trainer, or just a very comfortable walking shoe if youre comfortable n your feet a lot. t Thank you ASICS for taking care of us wide footers!

Overall very comfortable running shoe. Tongue of shoe started to irritate top of ankle. Had to adjust lacing and chance to longer socks.

This shoe ticks all the boxes. The right toe box is a little tight, but other than that its a very comfortable shoe. Definitely made recommended changes to the nimbus 25. Although, could help if they released more colors.

I love this shoe, but the fit seems slightly different than the 25s. The tongue curls over itself when I tighten the laces and I never had that happen with my two pairs of the 25s. The shoe feels longer, too, but when I compare them to my 25s they line up, so IDK. All that being said, this is still my go-to road shoe for almost any type of run.

Cushiest shoe Ive ever worn! I am on my feet all day every day.

My ASICS are the best cushioned sneaker out there, I have many pairs its all I wear .

Fits width and length, very comfortable. I have extremely wide feet and these are awesome!

My second pair of the best most comfortable longest lasting durable beautiful shoes Ive ever owned. Will never buy any other running shoes.

The Nimbus 26 is narrower and upper is not as spacious as the Nimbus 25 I bought the Nimbus 25, size 11.5 US and was extremely impressed with the fit and comfort. I purchased the Nimbus 26, size 11.5 US and it feels like I am wearing 1/2 size too small. I went to the ASICS store on 2/18/24 and tried a Nimbus 26, size 11 US 4E Wide and it fit perfectly. I prefer the sole of the 26 as it is not as bulky as the 25. I ordered the 26 believing I was getting the same comfort with a better looking sole and started wearing right out of the box - my mistake because I cant return them. Please try 4E wide or 1/2 size larger non wide. Good luck. Thank you!

A very, very comfortable shoe. I bought them to run the Half Marathon of the Sea in Cartagena (Colombia) on February 18, 2024. Really very good, excellent tread, grip, stability. There was only one thing with these sneakers, and that is that I have used the Nimbus since the reference 21, and this is the first time they gave me blisters. I got the blisters the days before the race. This seemed strange to me, since it had never happened to me. The blisters hit me on the back, on the heel. But overall, I am very happy with these shoes, and obviously I will continue wearing them. For me it is the best reference for running.

Wide and extra wide is a big Difference 1 Extra wide

I buy 1 pair of this brand per year. This year I bought 2 pairs. I got worried maybe they wont have the extra wide next year.

Great fit! Having an extra wide foot makes finding good running shoes a challenge. Love the Gel-Nimbus's soft ride. Only negative is the tag on the tongue. I like no show socks and the tag can chafe your ankle.

Not as comfortable as my previous shoes which cost much less than these. I wish I didnt take the tags off, Id return them.

The thick elastic holding the tongue in place is extremely uncomfortable. It digs into the side of my foot. Really bad design.

Ive had the Nimbus since version 12. Updated every year except #22. Didnt like that years design, bought leftover 21s. Slightly narrower toe box again (ASICS can do better with more width). A slightly firmer feel than 25s. Less roll on the toe than last year, the sole seems slightly flattened. As a larger person I appreciate the cushion. The upper is fantastic just like last year. The best thing color. I got the bright yellow. Finally have a great color (not available in ladies) So the color makes you feel faster. Definitely worth getting.

Gel-Nimbus 26 is an incredible running shoe. Good heel to toe balance. No tripping while transferring from road to side walk. Very comfortable. Im noticing less post-run pain and I attribute that to the shoes. They make running fun again.
